    Amazing! Do you know if it would work to try to translate this into a g-f bread? I'd love to try it.

    I made this bread today gluten free!! It was great!! So happy with the results. I used my gluten free flour blend and it turned out perfect. Thanks so much for such a simple recipe that was easy to adapt to gluten free baking!!

    Do you think this would bake well in a cast iron skillet in the oven?

      I use a jelly roll pan but pretty much any pan, even a cast iron pan will work. Enjoy!

    Wow! Bread doesn’t get any easier! Delicious. Used grated cheese this time, next I’ll try the diced. Thanks for a great easy recipe, Kevin!

      Made it last night using cubed cheddar and some grated also. Even better! Some of the cubes on the outside melted and made crispies! Delicious! Thanks again, K!!

    I made this bread this morning using sharp cheddar and I ground my dried Rosemary. It smelled delicious while baking and tasted delicious for our evening meal, too. MDH sliced the bread and I heated half of it for our meal tonite. It was easy to make and very good to eat. The dough was quite sticky so I placed it on parchment paper and wet my hands to shape the loaf. I will make this again-hopefully using fresh Rosemary from my new plant on the deck.
